Home Again

I arrived home last night on the 5 pm ferry. The sky was cloudy with a few sprinkles of rain, but Pamlico Sound was calm and serene. After ten hours of driving and "road weariness" the tranquility of a leisurely ferry ride was most welcome. I so often hear visitors remark that simply boarding the ferry releases them from the stress of their busy metropolitan lives, and allows them to settle into the peace & quiet that is Ocracoke Island.

Actually I had a wonderful time away from the island. I'll share a little bit about my trip in the next day or so, but right now I suppose I ought to do a little work (oh yes, we actually do work here on the island!). Look for another post tomorrow.

Hi Philip... glad you're back on the island. I enjoy keeping up with the "happenings" on Ocracoke, I save it for a break when the stress at work gets to me. Also, it's great to sometimes know what's going on down there before Earl does. See you in November, Nora
